Awful. Prayers up.
Even an “unarmed” suspect does not equal an “undangerous” suspect. Civilians are clueless as to what a lot of cops deal with daily.
I hope the bystander who shot the perpetrator, er alleged perpetrator, doesn’t get sent to jail for unlawfully discharging a firearm. It sucks that we should ever have to worry about such things, but liberals would say he shouldn’t have killed the suspect because the policeman was already dead.
What a confusingly written article. Especially the first paragraph.
How did he kill the suspect after he died?
The use of ‘before’ is very tricky, and the basis of some good jokes.

Obviously “common sense” knife control is the ticket.

Hernandez was a former resident of El Paso , Texas, who had served with the Las Cruces police for two years, the statement said. Hernandez is survived by a wife and two young sons.
RIP young officer.
Prayers up.
Couldn't the witness just shoot the knife out of his hand? Why did he have to kill him instead of allowing him to get a fair trial? ...(asking for a Progressive "friend")
At fifty yards I’d prefer to face a knife
Maybe it’s just me
In my cell on the tier
It’s a toss up
Depends on the talents of my opponent and his precise weapon

I’m taking facing the firearm
Knives if plunged have a wide cut path
Knick the pulmonary or aortic or trunk or renal or liver arteries and you’re in trouble even in the trauma gurney in the emergency room
Alice Baker who were very good with rudimentary knives or shanks in their 70s-2000s halcyon days usually if possible preferred to penetrate that Titus Pullo on Cicero sweet spot triangle tween neck and collarbone
Lots of really tasty arteries and vessels down in there pretty exposed that bleed like a garden hose
Oh yes RIP the poor young officer
That was lapse of me
His family is suffering due to a madman
